Notes: Data are expressed as the mean ± SD or as number (percentage). aP value represents the significance of difference across sleep duration categories. P values were determined by one-way analysis of variance or Kruskal–Wallis test for continuous variables and Pearson χ2 statistic for categorical variables.
